In an effort to consolidate, and organize the Global Developers Team, this Wiki page is essentially intended to be the “Portal” to all things developer's work, information, and activities. Everything 'global development' should start here. Since much has existed from the past, when the team was not yet global, information will be found in too many different places.

This is an attempt to bring that information here, and at least have a link to the places where it used to be, or is (when whatever had been set up is still workable).

Entry points: There is a main menu at the top of the page, which is located immediately below the personal user's menu (with: User_name, My talk, My preferences, My watchlist, My contributions, Log out). The main menu contains the following headings, and with only the Dev Team subheadings:

* Main Page
* Navigation
* Getting Started
* Team Descriptions
* LingTeam Working Locations
* Related Projects
* Dev Team Resources
o Developer's Team Main Page
o About the Global Development Team
o Global Scope of Work
o Ongoing Projects
o Dev Team Members
o Developer Resources
o Recorded Meetings

The next entry point is what is called, “Navigation bar,” which is a template inserted at the beginning of every page, that helps go directly to areas most frequented:

However, this page, as the Main Page can also be used as a kind of universal menu akin to a “Site Map” or “Table of Contents” which will eventually be the complete list for all top level, sub-level, and sub-sub-level topics one could think of trying to find, on the technical side.

Team Meetings

Scheduling Doodle Poll suggest the maximum attendance by at least 30% will take place on Sundays, 3:00 PM, UTC/GMT. So until further notice we'll try the new weekly schedule:

The title link gives you a quick get started to be able to participate; the next one, addresses the creation of pages for the Global Developers' Team: Creating New Pages; further details are given HERE for a crash cram course to get started right away, and last but not least, HERE for a more detail from beginner to near expert...

Areas of Work

At present the Global Development Team is engaged in either of two activities: Maintenance, as listed in the redmine Project management area here: Redmine ( http://projects.zmdev.net/ ); or the Phoenix Project.

The Project began with the post in the International Forum, written by Cluster, the international Web Master System Administrator, and edited by Federico , asking the public for suggestions, and prescribing the form of presentation: Designing TZM Web Site
